Properties of eggshell powder filled low density polyethylene/ acrylonitrile butadiene styrene composites

Eggshell powder is one of the most abundant materials on our planet and has been quite early used in ground form to produce polymer composites. Chemical unmodified and modified eggshells powder filled low density polyethylene and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene composites were studied. The compositi...

description Eggshell powder is one of the most abundant materials on our planet and has been quite early used in ground form to produce polymer composites.
